With Halloween creeping up, it opens the door for some really fun crossovers, and this year sees Ash Williams from Sam Raimi’s cult horror hit. the bad death Make the cut. The character, played by Bruce Campbell in the movies, puts on his own skin. And Comicbook found that there’s a really fun easter egg if you meet Spider-Gwen or Spider-Man in the game with Ash’s skin.

If you, dressed in one of the spider suits, approach Ash, he’ll say “You remind me of this fighter I met…”, a nod to the origins of Sam Raimi’s 2002 Spider-Man namesake. Spiderman movie. In the film, Bruce Campbell plays a wrestling announcer who gives Maguire the iconic name. This is a cheeky little nod to that, which we think is really funny.
